As motor racing has changed, so has the equipment and nearly all professional-level racecars are now homologated and offered through the motorsport arms of carmakers. I was personally interested in exploring the similarities and differences between road cars and their race car counterparts.

The first car I looked at was the BMW M4 and it’s BMW Motorsport-built M4 GT4 counterpart at Virginia International Raceway, with thanks to ST Racing and young racing phenom, Samantha Tan. The M4 GT4 is such cool car with remarkable similarities and significant differences to the production car.

The name of the MP4-12C was a mouthful, thanks Ron Dennis, but it was a great starting point for the company’s modern lineup. The 650 refined the notion of the Super Series cars and introduced us to McLaren’s design language. There’s no question that the McLaren 720S has to meet some pretty high expectations. Join us as we have a look at McLaren’s latest Super Series supercar.

The Performante is the ultimate expression of the Lamborghini Huracan and with it’s groundbreaking Nurburgring lap time, it looks to be a formidable supercar. We take it for a spin to find out what it’s really like to be behind the wheel of this super Lambo.

Chevrolet is really breaking new ground with this Colorado ZR2 and it’s very different from any other four-wheel drive Colorados. And yes, there are the obvious Raptor comparisons, but the ZR2 is a full size smaller, making it much more usable in the real world. Speaking of the 2018 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 in the real world, it’s smaller size and great ride quality make this a much more interesting choice than a Raptor.

The McLaren 570S rounds out the British supercar maker’s lineup and for an entry-level McLaren, it’s pretty interesting. We take it for a spin and we talk to its designer, Robert Melville, about his first McLaren design.

The 2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE is designed to do one thing extremely well – carve corners and eat up distance like no other Camaro before it. We take it for a thorough test to find out what it’s really made of.

The Aston Martin DB11 is perhaps the post-modern grand tourer. The British marque has introduced a V8-powered model intended to broaden the appeal of the DB11 to a range of new customers. We take if for a run in California to see what it’s all about.
